PricewaterhouseCoopers’ Building Public Trust Awards Event

The 7th annual Building Public Trust Awards will see companies and individuals recognised for excellence in people reporting.

PwC invite Human Resource Directors across the FTSE 350 to celebrate the winners and companies highly commended for people reporting in the annual Building Public Trust Awards lunch. PwC and guests will celebrate the success of companies in two categories, the FTSE 100 and the FTSE 250.

The awards recognise efforts over the period 1 April 2008 to 31 March 2009 as demonstrated in annual reports and supporting corporate reporting such as investor presentations on company websites and in corporate responsibility reports.

When considering these awards, the judges assess the extent to which publicly available information enables stakeholders to make a balanced evaluation of the strength of human capital management and employment practice. Both the breadth and quality of reporting will be taken into account and judges will review descriptions of the people strategy and how it relates to overall business performance. Successful organisations will provide relevant and robust human capital data with targets and/or benchmarks where appropriate.

The criteria are based upon PwC's ‘corporate reporting’ framework and can be split into the following four areas: market overview, human capital strategy, people processes, and human capital impact.

The event will be held at Simpsons on the Strand from 12.30-2.30pm on 4th November.
